After his release, Jones was awarded $350,000, which he spent on a home, a race car and drugs. The money was gone within five years.

After leaving prison in 1992, the state of Kansas awarded Jones a $350,000 payment following his exoneration. The money added up to about $6 for every hour Jones was behind bars. On the outside, however, Jones struggled and eventually became addicted to cocaine.
